1) Do I tight it by loossening the bolt on the rudder

2) is it done from the inside through the rear hatch wich seem to be realy hard to reach.

Thanks

Dan,

When I adjusted mine I did it at the screw on the rudder. You might want to give a Hobie dealer a call before you mess with it though.

All line tension is handled at the rudder.

We have instructions here: http://www.hobiecat.com/support/articles/archive/?src=http://2010.archive.hobiecat.com/support/tech/Twist-n-Stow_Repair_Manual.html

Thanks guys for your help I have fix the problem.
I guess this is something I will have to put on my check list to make sure I have the right tension on the line.
